Sail on John

Although (and not to be sour grapes or anything)....I wish the refs would start paying a little more attention to the physical play of the Flyers and look for cases where some of that gets out of line. (To be honest, since I'm not there I really haven't gotten the benefit of looking at the entire pl...

I have a busload heading from Iowa City to the show. Given the rumored late entry (still don't think it will happen but don't want to spend two hours on the shoulder in the bus waiting in case it does) we were thinking about finding a bar somewhere around Janesville or Beloit that we could stop for...

We just got a Five Guys, may have to try them! They're good.. :) haven't been there, but they have at least one place in Chicago, across the street from Loyola University. Apparently they're building one in Woodridge, IL pretty much "down the street" from my house :D (Are they really that...

Sail on

I'm starting to think that the test is probably a little dated... I think distracted driving now contributes about 30% of all accidents (includes, cell phones, texting, eating, drinking(not drinking), removing hand from wheel, etc.)

Same here Bob, it's just Hockey (what I consider the greatest sport on the planet) and sometimes our emotions can get the best of us :) Here's looking forward to a "good" game tonight. (Personally IMO the Hawks let their foot off the gas Wednesday, maybe because a couple of them were hurti...

Good game by both teams tonight, both teams with equal giveaways/takeaways (which has to be expected...) Replay call in OT made up for missed call in regular game so all's good..... 2-1.... cannot go less than 6 anyway :) (Hawks need to regroup and win on Friday!....and I know not everyone here sha...

IMO call shouldn't be reversed, I don't think Galarraga would want it anyway....But Baseball should consider using replay at first base (makes a lot more sense than the home run replay anyway).... But on the other hand what a class act the Tigers were for their gift to Galarraga (new Corvette) and t...

What did Pronger do? Eh, hockey going into possibly mid-June is just getting ridonkulous. The NHL really needs to scale it back a bit. Get rid of some of the southern teams,go back to 80 games and best of five for the first round. He scooped up the game puck each time before anyone else could get t...

78%, two wrong answers required the exact number (which had never been covered...) and the other two were ambiguous enough that there were really two possible answers that were correct.

We were at a Loons game and you could hear the yell of outrage in one of the suites where they had the Tigers game playing. :o I can't imagine that you wouldn't be VERY careful when calling what was a perfect game :evil: Since it was out #3 in the 9th, I think the Commissioner of Baseball should ov...

Detroit's Armando Gallaraga was screwed out of a PERFECT GAME on a blown call tonight by 1st base umpire Jim Joyce. I haven't seen the replay yet, but I hear he was clearly out. (I wonder if Joyce is related to Matt Joyce, who the Tigers traded away before last season!?) That was absolutely stupid ...

ATTENTION - FOR THOSE WHO ARE PLANNING ON STAGING BUSES/RVS/CAR POOLS AT HEMINGWAYS SATURDAY, PLEASE PM ME WITH CONTACT NAME, # OF PEOPLE, # VEHICLES & TYPE & PHONE NUMBER Incoming PM Steve... Any other BNers out there want to caravan in with us from Hemingway's? We have met up in the squar...

Some people will sue for anything... Now if Google really has a version of the tool that shows bike/walk trails (and it's free like the other one)... than the lady doesn't have a leg to stand on on this suit because she used the wrong map (That's like using a nautical map to get from point A to poin...

Ouch...... (For some reason I should have seen this one coming )

All I'm bringing is my canopy, couple of chairs, and maybe stopping at WalMart for ice, drinks, etc...) I try to keep things simple, but love the setups other people have.... But this year is bound to be a little different (in that they're actually planning to enforce the parking lot times this year...

I blame the sloppy play on the fact that for many players this was really their "first" time in the big dance and that includes BOTH goaltenders. Some of the defense was sloppy, but Keith explained that rather well on the Chicago side (they sometimes get so caught up in the emotions that t...

Probably because NBC needed to televise the game and Saturday night was the only available time...
But I wonder what the ratings were like for this game.... It had quite a bit of excitement, the kind that sports channels like NBC like to see.....
